COD PRO vs COD King

Where COD King is the better fit
If your main goal is to take part of the payment upfront on COD orders, COD King’s partial COD feature does that and COD PRO does not.
Where COD PRO is the better fit
If your customers often don’t reply to texts, a voice call gets an answer, and order hold makes sure nobody ships an order that was never confirmed.
Questions sellers ask
Is COD PRO a COD King alternative?
Yes. Both help Shopify sellers cut fake COD orders. COD King focuses on OTP and partial payments at checkout; COD PRO focuses on confirming the order with the customer after checkout by WhatsApp, voice call or email and holding it until they confirm.
Which one can call my customers?
COD PRO can place an automated voice call where the customer presses 1 to confirm. COD King's listing names SMS and WhatsApp as its channels.
Which one has more reviews?
COD King shows 963 reviews at 4.9 stars on the Shopify App Store. COD PRO's current Shopify App Store listing shows no reviews yet.
Can I use both?
Yes. Some sellers verify the phone at checkout with one app and confirm the order after checkout with another. Make sure the two do not message the same customer twice for the same order.
